SCS Wish Rak New Year's Card Challenge - Part 2

This is another card I made for Wish Rak New Year's Card Challenge at Splitcoaststampers. It was for the Hippity Hoppity/Easter Challenge (WRNYCC1102) .

SCS Wish Rak New Year's Card Challenge 2011

This is a card I made for the Wish Rak New Year's Card Challenge over on the Splitcoaststampers website. This is for the St. Patrick's Day/Good Luck challenge (WRNYCC1101). The challenge took place over the New Year's Weekend. All cards made for the challenge are meant to be sent to troops serving overseas to use to send to their families. The challenge included 12 different challenges. I completed 10 of them and will be posting them over the next several days.

This is a card I made for my SCS Wish-RAK Letters to Santa Secret Exchange. The person receiving it along with a box of goodies is a secret until Saturday. All items used to make the card are SU unless noted otherwise. The card base is Soft Suede, layered with Cherry Cobbler and then a piece of Deck the Halls DSP. I gold embossed the sentiment (Bells and Boughs set) on a oval punched (Marvy punches) piece of Cherry Cobbler and then layered that onto a oval scallop punched piece of Soft Suede. I then used a gold Krylon pen on the edges of the scalloped oval. I meant to add a piece of Very Vanilla satin ribbon but I had adhered the pieces done before I remembered. Oh well. Maybe next time. My sister's birthday is Saturday, so I will be posting her card tomorrow.

I haven't posted in a long time. My father's birthday was November 16, so I am posting the card that I made for him. I used one of my favorite SU sets, Lovely as a Tree. For the base of the card, I used Old Olive card stock. I layered that with a piece of Crumb Cake stamped with Old Olive and Chocolate Chip with the weeds stamp from the Inspired by Nature set. I then used a strip of Old Olive DSP layered onto a piece of Chocolate Chip. The main image is from the Lovely as a Tree set layered onto a piece of Chocolate Chip. I stamped the tree with Chocolate Chip and then colored the leaves with my Certainly Celery marker.
